Learning Challenge: Sleep

Why sleep may be more important than studying

New thing:
I learned about all the different phases of sleep and how they affect us

Confirmed:
I knew that sleep was important, but that has never stopped me from pulling an allnighter before. I think that we all undervalue sleep.

Curious:
I think that after this I will try to have better sleep habits to see if it really works. I am curious to see if it makes a difference.

Introduction to an Almost Graduate

I just decided to do nursing last August (hence the extra semester of undergrad to get my prereqs in) and so I am a little late to that game. I have always k

Sneaking into the window, I saw a shadow and knew I was screwed. I pulled myself into my room, head down, ready to take my punishment. Weirdly my bedroom light did not flick on with urgency and suddenly I was scared. If one of my parents wasn’t in my room, who was? All of these thoughts rushed through my head as I fumbled to turn on my phone’s flashlight. I pulled it up and turned towards the shadow, illuminating my little brother. “What the heck are you doing in here?” I scream whispered. I was very aware I had just been caught sneaking back into my room, but also I was pissed. The question was rhetorical, as I could see my brother had found my secret stash of money and was trying to hide that by shoving it in his pocket. “What the heck are you doing sneaking out? I am so telling mom” he responded. “You can’t tell mom, I just caught you stealing! And I am in my room, you have no proof that I was ever not.” I could tell I had stumped my little brot
